Hey friends! I learned a thing after filming this! Nonspeaking = does not communicate through oral speech Nonverbal = does not communicate with words at all Neither term is better or worse than the other, they just exist and have different meanings. When I go nonspeaking, I use ASL or a text to speech app. When I go nonverbal, I have a hard time understanding or comprehending words. I’m going to work on changing my terminology to be more correct and I hope you will too!
